Christina Li holds both a Master’s and Bachelor’s Degree in Data Science and Analytics from the University of Michigan School of Information, and has been working at Adobe for over three years as a Data Analyst. In her role, she uses Python and SQL to perform data analyses and creates dashboards to effectively summarize findings to upper leadership to provide data-driven solutions for complex business challenges within the generative AI product marketing and post-sales space.
Growing up, Christina possessed a strong aptitude for mathematics. She discovered her passion for tutoring her junior year of high school when she volunteered for her school’s chapter of the National Honor Society. She tutored high school and middle school students in geometry, pre-algebra, algebra, and pre-calculus, achieving significant improvements in her students’ grades. This success led to private tutoring summer sessions, where, through word of mouth, parents sought her guidance to prepare their children for the upcoming school year and beyond. She subsequently became the head of the tutoring committee within the National Honor Society, expanding her role to match students with suitable tutors and provide guidance to other tutors while continuing to instruct various levels of math.
In her undergraduate program, Christina continued to grow her mathematical and analytical capabilities through her coursework and research. In her senior year, she became a teaching assistant for a career coaching course where she taught students how to tackle the internship search process. In her office hours, she worked with her students in a one-on-one setting to help further refine their resumes, cover letters, and interview answers. Her support helped numerous students secure prestigious internships at firms such as Deloitte, PwC, and Google.
Christina continued her education in her graduate studies at the University of Michigan, specializing in courses on machine learning, predictive modeling, and natural language processing. She completed an internship at the National Institutes of Health, where she worked with bioinformatics research data. She then transitioned into the tech industry, completing an internship as a business intelligence analyst at Adobe. She has now thrived in her role for over three years, leveraging her technical skills to drive strategic decision-making.
With her strong analytical background and dedication to mentorship, Christina is well-equipped to provide exceptional tutoring in pre-algebra, algebra, and standardized test preparation, helping students achieve their academic goals. Her commitment to student success extends beyond mere academic achievements, focusing on cultivating confidence and independence in their academic pursuits.
